[2.2] Guide for Life based Crit Dagger Reave

Do you think you could upload a video (high map or atziri run) and make an item showcase thread with the gear and stats you used?

I'm trying to decide between a dual wield reave build or a more defensive CI reave build with around 7.5k es and some block. I feel like a CI Reaver build would be more reliable and let me do any content in the game, but then again, I haven't seen a high end dual wield reave build in action yet so I'd be very interested in how yours works out.
Ugh effort
Sorry for asking dumb question, but If I would use dagger (ambusher) as a main hand that has 330+dps and Bino's Kitchen knife(atm my main hand, but with using ambusher, I would be using as a off-hand), is it worth it to do like that?

Afaik, if you use two reave compatible weapons that have around the same damage values, you should be perfectly fine as the damage would be just as consistent as if you only used one weapon to reave. :)

Would Lavianga's Wisdom be a good offhand for this build?

So, I'm level 83 now and I feel like my damage is a bit underwhelming on higher maps even when using Abyssus. Tooltip only says 20k :/. Thing is, I only have 3k HP as well as Im not using Belly, but Daresso's for the endurance charges. Is there anyway to improve my gear as it is? Anything I can swap out? (Need the amulet for raw attributes though).

Spoiler


Edit: Is the tooltip wrong? It says 25k when I dual wield with Relentless, but says 38k when Im using a shield! Well, how do I even calculate my actual DPS?

i want to ask is it possible to use soul taker? because im running with soul taker and using 3 aura now.
with HOA HOI with COH and Hatred.

Soul Taker is a decent offhand choice. It enables you to run the CurseOnHit-Assassin's Mark setup which basically gives you a 7 link. Triggering CoH is more reliable with HoT and the damage increase from shock is a nice bonus aswell, making it much more superior compared to HoI.

So if i drop HoI and use HoT my dps will be boost?

I want to hear your opinion.
my armor is Coil Lightning
and use head abysus.
Thank you

The damage increase from Abyssus is so insane that you will oneshot yourself to reflect.
I would just use a normal rare helmet, you can keep the Coil (instead of a Belly) if you feel like you need the phys mitigation.

but sir,if i drop abysus it will be drop so much damage. is that okay? i mean this build i mean to make damage isnt it? and do you think lightning coil reduce 30% is worth to keep instead change it with Belly? since i already bought it with expensive price :(



And my last question do you think we can run atziri? and would you like to upload you running atziri?

Thank you




If i'm understanding the build correctly you build your damage through the speed of your Reve, but it has to be balanced with your leech. Abyssal may give you a shit ton of straight damage, but your survivability is dependent on leeching. If your damage per hit is greater than your leech per hit you die. From what I'm understanding here, Abyssal gives you so much damage that when you hit a reflect mob, you don't even get a chance to leech it back since YOUR damage overwhelms your own defenses.

I am already playing with medium texture quality settings and I am fairly sure that my laptop will not be able to handle any additional recording. Once you know the mechanics of the bossfights running (normal) atziri is a piece of cake.

Follow the stat prioritization as outlined in the skilltree section.

See above regarding the video question. My gear is already linked in the guide.

7.5k ES CI is insanely squishy and cannot compare to this build in terms of defences at all.

The core idea behind this build is to use a dagger with a reave incompatible weapon. Using two daggers destroys your DPS (unless they are exactly identical) and will invalidate anything that I have written about this build in my guide.

Bino's has around 220-230 DPS, while his main hand dagger has 330+. This is anything but "around the same damage value".

I believe that the increased AoE + area damage mods are global (cannot 100% confirm though), which would make it a decent offhand weapon.

Most of your gear does not have any or only negligible life rolls, so your pitiful defences should not come as a surprise. With the exception of your chest, you will have to replace every single of your items short-midterm (I still prefer the defence of Belly over Daresso's though).

As already mentioned in the guide, the tooltip DPS is bugged as it always calculates the damage with alternating weapon attacks.

Hey!
If I'm using Bino's, should I drop Vaal Pact?

You should drop the Bino :)

You can get rare daggers with better stats for a cheaper price and VP is a necessity for high lvl mapping.

Hello, I am new to this build , I have something to ask you guys, Can you guys help me?
1. I dont know which chest should i use...Lighting Coil, Belly , Carcass , Daresso, Volls Protector becasue Im gonna use Abyssus.

2. Which Buff should I use? Im using HoA and Hated,<(120 mana left ) Should I add some more buffs?or 2 is enough. Also Should I use PoF if I want to solo Atziri?

3.How should I link my Reave? is that Reave + Muti+ Melee Phy + Increase Area Effect / Concentrated Effect + (Add Fire Dmg) + (Power Charge on Crit ) But add FD and PCOC I saw someone use faster atk / Increase Crit Dmg/ Chance, I want to ask which DPS is higher? or should I link any other gem?

4. I follow this tree is ok? https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwYAsNii2cgU9W9qjBa_JpVh4lVLjDaxs-1Bpn-1SPPqKgtwUonTcNVd8g5IEZaQG3BWmhPb1AcelS7w1UlRpzT2_EcG2HZW9dtul9COirk-rGYs4X3jnapsjGKs6NabJjIBshnPeiLqLVUWqj3RBX0FtY2_1CMwcd2oS3g6QlFH51Qk_f_ePs-95jB8jX0j9qOKTGAEsZVm7g7vetN-5woKm_zFtxeA4eJeOJYNjYd2459KfQBeGY7tgwgupctNkvajFSAtgxm0vqdgQWNwZU29Nkd-FfZieQAGwuy0xdvnDPJh63pTfXX-uvLhY0MN0YTZ
